Missing a watch? Call Windsor police

If you’re missing a watch, Windsor police might have it after an eagle-eyed citizen help them catch an alleged thief.

The witness called police around 1 p.m. Wednesday about a possible break and enter in the 400 block of Randolph Avenue.

The resident had seen a man leaving a nearby home with a guitar strapped to his back. Within minutes, responding officers found the alleged culprit near Wyandotte Street West and Randolph Avenue.

Other officers went to the house. The door was unlocked. They announced themselves and the tenant came to meet them. The tenant had heard a noise in the house and assumed it was roommate, then later realized a guitar was missing from the living room.

When officers arrested the suspect for break and enter, they also found a bottle of perfume and two stainless steel watches on him. He couldn’t explain where the items came from.

Justin Moxon, 29, is charged with break and enter and possession of stolen property.

Police are now trying to figure out who owns the watches.

I don’t know about impossible, but given that it’s taken almost 20 years to churn out five instalments of this series – something the early Bond franchise managed in six years, and the 1960s M:I TV show in just six weeks – these missions are certainly a lot of work
